I've worked with Custom Packaging Lane a few times this year on packaging for our soaps. They always deliver great looking boxes within our tight deadlines. Frank is super communicative and a pleasure to work with.

Very happy with Custom Packaging Lane. Sam and Sarah were great to work with. The quality of the printing and speedy delivery was very much appreciated. I use them for 2 of our custom printed boxes and will be using them for more projects moving forward. Sam was wonderful and even caught a typo that I missed. Thank you.

Product Description
What Are Custom Mailing Tubes?
Custom mailing tubes are shipping-grade cylinders that carry posters, prints, documents, textiles, and rolled goods through carrier networks without damage. Unlike plain stock tubes, a custom tube prints your brand across the full body, turning a commodity shipper into unboxing real estate. You pick the internal diameter, the length, and the wall build, then we match the closure: plastic snap caps, paper plugs, or crimped metal ends.
Built for the Carrier Network
The spiral-wound wall is the whole game in a mailing tube. We quote wall thickness against what you ship: lightweight walls for paper goods, heavier multi-ply builds for framed textiles, metal parts, or anything with weight behind it. Tubes resist the crush and drop cycles of parcel handling far better than folded cartons for rolled goods, and they cube out efficiently on the rack.
Printing and Branding
Print runs edge to edge on the body in full color: brand marks, handling instructions, social handles, or a wrap-around design that makes the parcel itself the advertisement. Matte and gloss finishes are available, and we can print interior tint for a color-pop reveal when the cap comes off. Free design support is included, and every order gets a proof before production.
Who Uses Them
Print shops and artists shipping posters and fine-art prints, marketing teams sending campaign materials, apparel brands shipping scarves and textiles rolled instead of folded, and manufacturers moving blueprints, films, and flexible materials. If it rolls, a tube ships it better than a box.

Every tube is wound to order, so you choose the internal diameter and length to fit what you ship. Common poster builds run 2 to 4 inches in diameter, and we quote any size to spec.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Minimums start at 100 tubes. Bulk pricing starts from $0.49 per unit at volume, and your exact price is quoted to the size, wall build, and finish you need.
What end closures are available?
Snap-in plastic caps, paper plugs, and crimped metal ends. If you want an all-paper build for easier recycling, ask for paper closures when you request your quote.
